Date1977
DescriptionBy Arnold Wesker, Director John Dexter. Premiere, The Plymouth Theatre, New York, 16 Nov 1977. The costumes use exotic styling and colours [2832] for some characters and jewel colours or burgundies/autumnals with the styling a twist on Medieval clothes for others [2833], the reason being that people of different races are depicted. Most are annotated by character name and some include props for example, 2847 a scroll. 2859 and 2860 show two different costume choices for the character. 2818-24 contains ground plans for the hexangle fronted stage [2825 clearly shows the shape with a set design]. The palette of the designs is autumnal.
Paint, pen and pencil on paper.
